conferenceObject Incidence of Intraoperative Anaphylaxis in A University General Hospital in Brazil(2013) GARRO, Laila Sabino; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; SOARES, Iracy Silvia Correa; AUN, Marcelo Vivolo; RIBEIRO, Marisa Rosimeire; RODRIGUES, Adriana Teixeira; KALIL, Jorge; GIAVINA-BIANCHI, Pedro; MOTTA, Antonio AbilioRATIONALE: The epidemiology of intraoperative anaphylaxis is un-known in Brazil. We aimed to evaluate the incidence and clinical features of anaphylaxis during anesthesia in a University General Hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil. METHODS: A cross-sectional, observational study analyzing data fromvoluntary notification sent by anesthesiologists, about occurrence of intraoperative anaphylaxis during the period between January and December 2010. The diagnostic criteria for anaphylaxis were based onthe World Allergy Organization Guidelines. We analyzed the incidence of intraoperative anaphylaxis, clinical features, severity of anaphylaxis, types of surgical procedures, classification of anesthetic risk (American Society of Anesthesiologists - ASA), culprit agent cited by the anesthesiologist and type of treatment provided. RESULTS: The incidence of intraoperative anaphylaxis was 69:10.000 surgeries. The mean age of patients with anaphylaxis was 36.7 years-old and 57% were women. The most common procedures associated with anaphylaxis were the abdominal non-vascular (17.1%) and urologic (17.1%) surgeries. Skin symptoms were the most prevalent (85.7%) and all patients who presented cardiovascular shock were classified as ASA II (42.9%) or ASA III (57.1%). Epinephrine was used preferentially in anaphylaxis grade 3 (72.7%), while a few patients with anaphylaxis grades 1 and 2 took the drug (2.1% and 16.7, respectively). The most commonly etiologic drugs cited by the anesthesiologists were the neuromuscular blocking agents (22.9%). CONCLUSIONS: Our incidence of intraoperative anaphylaxis was higher than in other studies reported in the literature. These data are a warning signal to encourage measures to reduce the incidence of these severe reactions.- Prevalence of Sensitivity Signals to Latex in Meningomyelocele Patients Undergoing Multiple Surgical Procedures(2012) YEH, Wilson Shi Chia; KIOHARA, Priscila Rivoli; SOARES, Iracy Silvia Correa; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; ROCHA, Flavio Trigo; GALVAO, Clovis Eduardo SantosYeh WSC, Kiohara PR, Soares ISC, Carmona MJC, Rocha FT, Galvao CES - Prevalence of Sensitivity Signals to Latex in Meningomyelocele Patients Undergoing Multiple Surgical Procedures. Background and objectives: The number of patients allergic to latex has increased significantly. It is crucial to recognize the cases in order to prevent and apply adequate treatment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of allergy to latex in meningomyelocele patients. Materials and methods: A retrospective evaluation of medical records of patients with meningomyelocele diagnosis from January 2002 to December 2007 was conducted. Patients were grouped into allergics and non-allergics. The comparison of groups for gender was made by the Chi-Squared test, the Student's t test was used to compare age, and Mann-Whitney test was used to compare groups for clinical manifestations of allergy, number of procedures under anesthesia, hospital admissions and vesical catheterizations. Results: The mean number of procedures under anesthesia was 7 in the group with allergy and 4 in the group without allergy; this difference was statistically significant (p = 0.028). The mean number of hospital admissions was 4.5 in the group with allergy and 3.4 in group without allergy and mean vesical catheterization was 24.5 in allergic patients and 21.7 in non allergic ones. Conclusions: Meningomyelocele patients undergoing multiple procedures under anesthesia have high risk of developing clinical signals of allergy to latex. It is necessary that patients with meningomyelocele diagnosis should undergo exclusively latex-free procedures, avoiding high risk of sensitization and its complications. Specific tests to evaluate sensitization, genetic markers and latex-fruit relationship may contribute to a better understanding of risk factors related to allergy to latex and ways to prevent it.
